Description

COURSE OVERVIEW

Innovation is not only for the tech industry — it is central to the success of any business and it must be an integral part of a business strategy. Innovation has been accelerating since the invention of the steam engine, and the pace is increasing. Consider the telephone: it took 56 years for Alexander Graham Bell’s invention to reach half of US households; by comparison, smartphones took seven years to hit the same adoption rate. Excellence in leading innovation has far less to do with the leader having innovative ideas; it has everything to do with how that leader creates a culture where innovation and creativity thrives in every corner.
